Details: The Earth Day Food & Wine Festival is an intimate celebration featuring earth friendly cuisine, sustainably produced wines, live entertainment and educational exhibits highlighting innovative products. The award winning foods and wine featured are grown on local Central Coast farms committed to environmentally friendly practices that protect both our natural resources and communities.

The Festival is the only event of its kind in the country and is a unique opportunity to visit with the growers who grow great foods, wines and nurture a healthy environment. A silent auction will feature a variety of lifestyle packages and products.
